I am thinking of buying this rug… how is the shedding? I had the West Elm and it shed like a beast! Thank you for your input!

Thanks!

So far I love the look but crazy on the shedding. I keep reading that it will go away so crossing my fingers it does. We have 3 small kids so they are rough on everything and right now have white fuzz on them constantly. Question, is vacuuming what I should keep doing? I worry the vaccuum brush could be stirring up more fuzz. Also, realisticlly when did u notice the fuzz amounts going down? Love your wall color too! It inspired my pillow theme :) thanks for the response.

Hey! Hope you like your rug. What do you think of it so far? It is a shedder, but only really bad at first. After the first few months its something that isn’t really a big deal.

I know I am way behind the times…but, I should be getting my rug TODAY and your blog and pictures on IG was the main reason I went with that rug. I ended up getting it for 75% off. Super excited. I am nervous to get it though as I feel like a rug purchase should be done in person so you can touch and feel it. When you talk about it shedding is it mostly some extra vacuuming issue or do you actually get fibers on your clothes while sitting down?

It’s great, I guess it’s been about two years now. It’s in our bedroom and it’s great. The shedding has minimized significantly. I like vacuuming too ;)

Hey Kate,

Sorry for the late response. Just wanted to let you know that I do still love the rug, especially because it’s been easy to clean with the kids, I even got an entire cup of coffee out of it. It does shed a lot, but I vacuum at least once a week and it’s not a problem for me as long as I keep up with it. I would recommend it, but if you really hate a sheddy carpet, don’t get it. I do however think it’s manageable to keep up with though.

Yes! I know that rug, I debated between the two. There was something weird that happened to my order, I accidentally ordered it twice because I used their paypal checkout and never received a confirmation the first time, so I went ahead and ordered it again with my visa and had no problem. Then after logging into my account I realized that there were two order numbers. I emailed customer support and they cancelled the first ordered and sent the second. I’m looking back over my records, I ordered on the 21st, got a shipping confirmation on the 27th and received the rug on the 1st of the next month, so it took about 2 weeks from start to finish. I think you can view the status of the order online too, in case that helps with your bad case of awesome-rug-anticipation. I hope it’s everything you were hoping for, I bet it will be!

Thanks so much for your input! Approx how long did it take for you to get the tracking info and actually receive your rug? I’ve read several stories of people receiving a tracking number and then nothing ever appearing and they never received their rug! I guess I’m just a little scared that my rug will never show up. Or maybe I’m just so excited that I’m being impatient ;) the rug I ordered was the Moroccan Diamond Shag Rug. It looks pretty similar!

Hey Morgan, I totally love the rug. I think I’ve had it since April or so, and I’m really happy with it. You have to vacuum it a bunch at first because it will want to shed, but after you get through that period it’s all good. It doesn’t stain either, well at least we haven’t been able to stain it. I even had a kid pour an entire cup of coffee on it and was able to get it out without much trouble. I can’t speak to the customer service side of things, as I didn’t have any issues, nor did I try and return anything. I was happy with the experience and love my beautiful inexpensive rug! I’d be curious to hear which rug you choose.

Awh, Thanks. I think it makes it too :)

Oh and free shipping all the time. The return prices aren’t insane either if something doesn’t work out.
